It depends on where and with whom you play. If in the campaign of friends, then it's not a sin to drink, but if in a casino or a closed poker club I think that it's not reasonable to drink

You have a nickname, by which it is clear that you do not drink. Only Russian will understand. :)

Alcohol and poker incompatible things, you stop to soberly assess the situation. Better strong coffee.

It is better not to drink anything at all, and then sit and want to go to the toilet. And think about it, not about poker.

I'm talking about live play if you couldn't figure that out. What are y'alls thoughts?


Casinos know very well the effect of alcohol and gambling. Particularly if I play for profit I do not take, if I play to share with friends without caring if I win or lose if I take my drinks .

Another category of bluff:). I don't think you'll take great benefits using this method. I will continue using the standard one.

Good luck at the tables!!!

Personally I did not win any tournament under alcohol, maximum top prize places, alcohol promotes aggressive poker. Well, of course, depending on how much alcohol to drink, as they drink in Russia, it's better not to start. Good luck to everyone in drunken poker :);)

For me I can't do mental math well after a few beers, but I love to play buzzed at home games or easy going private games. Drinking and a tight solid EV based strategy usually don't mix well.

Good day!

I know one truth! Alcohol and poker are incompatible things! Drinking alcohol during the game is certainly losing, because playing under the influence of alcohol, we think that we are very cool players and in fact quite the opposite!

alcohol

I have found that drinking while I play significantly worsens my play. I tend to play much more aggressive. Additionally, I tend to have stronger tells when I'm playing. It is not a good strategy for me, but I can see how it helps others. I also don't let the fact that someone is drinking change my image of the person. I try to use their gameplay only. Also, I have found that that there is a certain threshold for drinking in performance in pretty much everything. The first couple drinks, depending on your tolerance, will allow you to think more creatively and open minded. However, this is unsustainable for a long period of time. Therefore I can see alcohol being a benefit in short, sit&gos, but a bad idea if you are planning to play for several hours.

How many people and so many opinions
But I think when you play you can drink, but within reasonable limits.

Alcohol -'it's poison. All alcoholic beverages are broken down in the liver by blocking its other functions, in particular the production of glucose. It is needed by the body for energy production.Even if it's just a mug. Contained dose of alcohol can cause drowsiness, slowness of movement, decrease in physical strength, memory impairment.I don't drink alcohol and you do not advise

Well done, bro! That's the truth!

The human body needs water. So drink water every hour or two.
